Here's a role I would never imagined Vince Vaughn doing- but damn glad he did!!! The whole body switching thing (yeah we've seen it a million times, I know) but this despite a familiar premise was sold by the two leads particularly Vaughn who seemed he was having a blast playing killer and highschool senior!
Well written, great acting, and a decent ending.
Worth checking out!!

A surprisingly good stab flick. It was fun and gory, with a body switching twist for that extra kick. I mean, he did make Happy Death Days and some Paranormal Activities so I'm loving his groove anyway. It looked like Vince Vaughn had a fun time filming this.
You can't take Freaky too seriously. If that's what you're looking for in a movie then you should just pass on this one. But if you're just looking for some easy entertainment, mindless fun and some
gory scenes then Freaky is a good option. The story has a fast pace so you never get bored, the slashing scenes are funny, inventive and well made. As for the acting it was good from the whole cast. Vince Vaughn plays a character that I would not have expected him to play, and he did it well. Freaky is a good friday night popcorn slasher comedy.
Vince Vaughn's acting is top notch. His pancy way of running around n his girly act is what made this film entertaining.
The film starts off with a bang, lots of brutal killings n then maintains the entertaining value cos of Vaughn's top notch acting.
The film has good humor n moves at a decent pace.
The professor with the handle bar moustache looks like Edward Norton.
This movie was a blast. It's not an academy award winning film lol. It's exactly what I was looking for, a fun Friday night. It made me laugh, had some gory kills, and the acting was good. I never understand the whole "it's not original" argument. Give me a break. It's a good movie.
